In many cases Vayama does not charge booking fees. If applicable, a non-refundable service fee will be charged, depending upon the country where the credit card used for purchase was issued, airline, departure point, and/or destination. When applied, the fee is always included within the fare quoted.

Vayama accepts American Express, Visa, and MasterCard as forms of payment for your Vayama travel purchases.
In addition, Discover Card is accepted by many (but not all) airlines. If Discover card is acceptable by the airline selected within your itinerary, it will be made available as an optional form of payment when entering payment information at the end of the booking process.

At this time we are unable to accept Virtual Credit Cards (also known as "single purchase cards") for payment of tickets on the Vayama website. A virtual credit card allows for only a "single purchase". However, when purchasing through Vayama two separate credit card charges typically take place. One charge is for the Vayama booking fee and a second charge (which goes directly to the airline) is made to cover the actual cost of the airline ticket.

When you make a reservation, there may be instances where the airline or Vayama will contact your credit (or debit) card company to confirm that the card you are using is valid and hasn?t been reported lost or stolen. At this time, they may also check to see if the card has enough money to cover the transaction. This is communicated in the form of a pre-authorization for the full amount of your reservation.

Pre-authorizations are common but are often confused with actual charges. While in-store purchases are immediately charged and deducted from your available balance, pre-authorizations are temporary holds. The length of the hold will vary, and your credit card company can advise you on their policy and process.

Your credit card will be charged, in full, for all air tickets at the time of booking. Hotel and car rental charges are paid directly to the hotel property and car rental company at the time of service unless stated otherwise at the time of booking.

Yes, all taxes and fees are included and clearly displayed as a separate amount within the "Price Summary" section prior to making your purchase.

Exception: Some countries impose an airport arrival and/or airport departure tax which are collected at the airport at the time of arrival/departure and therefore cannot be collected in advance. If this tax applies it is only collected when a stop of more than 24hours occurs. Please check with your airline of international arrival/departure or call our Customer Care department at 1.650.265.1856.
